Artist John Brown gathers the metal scraps and assembles his finding into sculpture of colorful butterflies, insects and birds. John uses everything from nails to bicycle chains to car parts to create his sculptures.

But thanks to his incredible skill, the sculptures look as delicate and detailed as their living counterparts. Further detail is added in with paint so they look even more like the real thing!

You can see more of his metal insects and other welded figures on his Facebook and Etsy page.
